ministration which has governed the Ma
ton bv the voice of the entire people
since the war. The return of these flags
would prove indeed that the North and
South are again to each other as broth
ers. 1t would prove that the States OF the
great American Union are fraternal
in fact as well as in name.
1t would prove that the old war
rancor has disappeared for ever from the
minds and hearts of the people. 1t
would prove that the only war memory
cherished by the Nation is the memory
of that Nations common valor. 1t
would prove that from the Gulf of Mexico
to the Pine Tree State there exists in
deed Nation of Americans. 1t would
prove that the Nation is at last united
that the people are now one and in
divisible-that sectionalism is no more.
If any action possible could more firm
ly bind the South to the Union-could
more thoroughly make her part or por-

now-that action would be the return of
her battle-fags.
They are standards hallowed by the
blood of her bravest and best; standards
beneath which her children died; en-
blems made sacred by the tears Of sor-
row. They are banners on whose
battle-torn folds are written in im-
perishible characters the record Of South
ern vaior and of Southern grief. In all of
the broad land of the sunny South there
is scarcely family to whom the return
of these flags would not directly appeal !;
there is scarcely family but which can
tell OF dear ones who died beneath those
battle banners. With what sacred joy
with what tender lnemories-with what
fervent enthusiasm then would these flags
be received by the Southern people.

LUST AND MURDER.

Every day but demonstrates more for
chilly that the police force of Salt Lake is
utterly inadequate for the work to be
done.
Murder, arson, rape, burglary, all the
crimes of the decalogue could occur ev-
cry night in Salt Lake City and the po-
lice force only learn of them as other cit
izens do, through the news columns of
The DEMOCRAT. !.
The Burton affair was a warning that
the bloody hand of murder could strike
on one Of the most public streets of the
city at its pleasure. A recent case in the
Seventh Ward tells our citizens that lust
walks the street under cover of the night
with no obstacle out the resistance of the
victim in the way of beastly desire.
This Seventh ward case is in itself
enough to arouse the Indignation of our
citizens and to bring the blush of shame
to even the cheek Of the City Council
Two young girls leave their homes in one
of the most respectable resident portions
of the city for an evening stroll. Scarce
ly are they beyond the protecting roof
tree of home before they are approached
by brute in human form, and are COM
PEELED to listen to a vile proposal. In
terror the girls fee and are pursued by
the lustful scoundrel. More by good
luck than anything else they escape, the
pursuing brute only halting on the thres-
hold of the girls home.
A male relative is informed of the at
tempted outrage. He employs a strata
gem to unmask the lustful villain. At
tired as female he leaves the house and
follows the course taken by the girls.
He, too, is accosted in like manner, and
striking straight from the shoulder, levels
the lustful insulter in the dust. A
struggle follows, and the police are loudly
called for. But no policeman is within
the range of the report of
cannon, let alone a human voice,
and the scoundrel escapes. 1t
then trarspires that this is
not the first or second or third attempt of
this character. This same human beast
has been devoting himself nightly to
these lustful efforts for week.
VIII neither lust nor murder stir the
City Council to action? Will neither
outraged virtue nor innocent blood ap-
peal to the city government. Must men
die, and women be insul.ed on the streets
of Salt Lake as incidents in the common
course of events? Is there no protection
for either life or virtue, or is the City
Council so permeated with the old polyg-
amous leaven that human blood and out
ragged innocence are of sweet savor in its
nostrils, and of joy in its sight?

STATEHOOD"

According to the Church Organs Echo
this morning, the Mormon Territorial
Committee has issued "call" for Con-
stitutional Convention, with the view to
securing the admission of Utah to the
Union as sovereign State. OF course,
the Echo endorses the order Of the head
Of the Church, proclaimed through the
so-called committee, and Justify yells the
cry of Statehood" as the shibboleth of
the Peoples party" for the coming
campaign. The object Of this movement
upon the part of the Church leaders
must be apparent to everyone posses
sing the discernment and acumen of
an oyster The Mormon dictators, or
rather dictator, knows. as does every
intelligent person, that there is no
more possibility for the admission
of this Territory with the present politi-
cal majority, than there would be if was
inhabited solely by tribes of hostile In
dians. What the Mormon politicians
dread is any distinct party action upon
the part of the Democracy of Utah in op-
position to their Church and State organi-
zation. They are shrewd enough to per
ceive that the chances are ten to one
that the Democratic party will hold the
reins of the National Government for the
next six years at least, and their policy
is to prevent by every means in their
power, such action by the Utah Democ-
racy as will force the Mormons into di-
rect opposition to candidates nominated
by conventions called by legitimately
constituted Democratic authority. They
are convinced, moreover, that with such
separate convention action, followed by
the consolidation of the Democrats and
Republicans at the polls as is advocated
by large majority of the most practical
and discerning loyalists of both parties,
will lose them a number Of members of
the Council and Assembly and control of
q still larger number OF school districts in
the Territory. 1t is the desire of their
hearts that the old method of nominat-
ing should prevail, and the cry of estate
hood" is raised as a bugaboo, and to
serve as handle for intensely partisan
and short-sighted Gentiles, to secure the
adoption OF a policy which is certain to
result, as it always has, in inglorious
defeat. This is the true inwardness of
the Mormon cry Of Statehood" at the
present time.

BAYARD' ULTIMATUM,

Mr.. Bayard is evidently determined
that the United States shall not be made
European pauper asylum.
The energetic action Of the Secretary
has brought the matter fairly and
squarely before the people. The issue is
now made, and an understanding must
now be reached.
The United States is rich. That is no rea-
son why she should support the paupers
of European governments--no reason why
her surplus revenue should be changed
with English poor rates. The United
States is free. That is no reason why
her soil should furnish forth European
penal colony-no reason why her liberty
loving and law abiding people should be
compelled to receive in their midst cargo
after cargo of foreign convicts and
criminals.
Says the Denver News:
The subject of foreign emigration is
coming to the front in many shapes. Only
rangements were being made to transfer the
entire penal colony of New Caledonia to the
United States.
Later the steamer City of Chester ar
rived with load, including about one hun
dred paupers whose passage was paid by the
British Government. The commissioners
of emigration have decided to send all of
this class back. Another case in point has
reached an issue in Boston.
A Cunard steamer brought over an
insane woman. The authorities ordered
her return to Europe. Subsequently she
escaped from the vessel, as It appeared,
without connivance of the crew. The COM
pany was fined 81 900 for gross carelessness
and had to pay before the vessel could Sc
cure clearance papers.
Meantime the subject appears in a diplo-
matte correspondence between Mr.. West,
the British Minister at Washington, and
Secretary Bayard. The agent of England
wants to know whether under the existing
law Irish emigrants sent out at the public
cost and who have friends in the United
States able to help and support them will be
allowed TO land" To which Mr.. Bayard
replies in substance that no person will be
permitted to land who is unable to take care
of himself or herself, without becoming a
public charge.
Mr.. Bsyard says that "no person will
be permitted to land who is unable to
take care of himself or herself, without
becoming a public charge" This is
Secretary Bayard's ultimatum. This is
what he tells the powers of Europe,
the more especially England, for as
usual, when there is imposition in hand,
England is in the lead. Mr.. Bayard
speaks opportunely and fearlessly. He
will not lack support from the people,
the administration, or press.

LET THE G.. A. r. EXPLAIN.

Commander-in-C Chief Fairchild, of the
Grand Army of the Republic, has been
guilty of the most fanatical and partisan
Republican utterances in regard to the
return to the Southern States OF the bat
tie flags captured during the war.
Is then, the Grand Army of the Re-
public a partisan Republican organiza-
ton, and is its Commander-in-C Chief the
public exponent of that partnership?
If such is the case the country wants to
know. it. The Grand Army of the Re-
public has been looked upon by the
country as an organization of veterans Of
the late war. As such the country has
been proud of the organization, and as
such it has been publicl. honored,
probably as no other similar organization
ever has been in the worlds history.
Politics are entirely foreign to the
Grand Army as an organization. The
veterans composing the body are both
Democrats and Republicans. As veterans
the country has and will cherish them
as politicians the country will spurn
them. The people want no partisan
politics masquerading as nationalism.
They want no bloody shirt faunted under
cover of the National emblem.
Far too many instances OF political
partisanship have been furnished of late
by the Grand Army OF the Republic Oi
such was the support given to the infa-
nous Dependent Pension bill; of such
was the st. Louis incident; of such is
General Fairchild's utterances in regard
to the Southern battle-fags.
The Grand Army of the Republic is
being led in forbidden paths fatal to it.
self. General Fairchild has made an
egregious ass of himself. Will the Grand
Army of the Republic suffer its voice as
an organization to be expressed in the
assinine bray OF its commander-in-chIef.
Let the Grand Army explain. There is
ample room for such explanation.

THE NEW ROAD.

The Utah Railway, whose articles Of
incorporation have just been filed here,
will be great factor in the development
OF Utah.
This road is continuation of great
east and west railway bee line. The
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy reaches
Pacific Junction. From the Junction the
Burlington & Missouri advances to Den
yer. From Denver the Colorado Railway
comes to the Eastern border of Utah,
and from the eastern border of Utah the
Utah Railway will cross our Territory.
The Utah Railway enters Utah in
Emery county in the Grand river valley,
and runs to Salina, in Sewer county.
From Salina the main line turns north,
and passing through Sanpete, Juab and
Salt Lake county, reaches Salt Lake City.
This gives the metropolis direct con-
nection, and from Salina the road will
pass on to the western border. From
there it will undoubtedly go to San
Francisco. 1t can be seen at a glance
what an amount of Utah Territory this
road will open up. 1t will not only open
up the country through which it passes,
but it will make Salt Lake City the dis
tribnting point of the wealth such open
ing up will create.
The Utah Railway will directly develop
nine Utah counties, viz: Emery, Piute,
Beaver, Millard, Sewer, San Pete, Utah,
Juab and Salt Lake, or at least half OF
the Territory in area, and four-fifths of it
from the standpoint of population.

The Grand Army of the Republic is
showing uncalled for excitement over the
return by President Cleveland of the
banners and colors captured during the
war to the several States from which
they were wrested on the battle field.
The case of the G. A. r. is not as desper-
as General Lucius Fairchild would have
it appear. The banner OF the bloody
shirt is still left, and to Judge from the
language held by General Fairchild, the
crimson banner Of Republicanism would
just about suit him.

THE SOUTHERN BATTLE FLAGS.

1t is to be hoped that the dispatch of
last night telling of the revocation of the
Presidents order that the battle-hags of
the Southern States, captured on the
field of battle, be returned to the original
owners, is untrue.
Such a return would be a noble action.
II would be well worthy of the first ad-

SECRETARY BAYARD says that pauper
immigration must cease. The Secretary
very probably thinks that as the country
has got rid of the official leeches of Re-
publicanism it is too early to assume any
more public charges.
